Lewis will be eligible for parole after 20 years. Prosecutors who handled the case characterized the punishment as a fair sentence because Day was the primary abuser from the beginning.
During an impassioned statement at Wednesday’s sentencing hearing, Mickhal Garrett, Aniya’s father, spoked about the future he is no longer able to share with his daughter. He will no longer be able to drop her off at pre-school. There will be no first day of kindergarten. There will be no prom night photos. There will be no walking her down the aisle.
